Imprimis, In the name of God, amen. I CHRISTIAN PARR being 
in health and of good and perfect memory, do first commit 
my soul to God and my body to Christian burial. 
Item, I leave unto the poor ten shillings. 
Item, to my GRANDSON JOHN CHRISTIAN in Dublin twenty shillings. 
Item, I leave to my SONS ROBERT AND JOHN CHRISTIAN five 
shillings apiece if they demand it. 
Item, I constitute and appoint my SON and DAUGHTER ROBERT 
AND MARGRETT QUAIL Executors of all the rest of my goods 
moveable and immoveable and that each of them have an equal 
proportion, only that my said DAUGHTER MARGRETT shall have 
five pounds over and above or out of my said SON ROBERT's 
share or proportion. And if it my will and pleasure that 
if either of these my said Executors die before or after 
my own decease without issue, then his or her part of goods 
shall return to the survivor, and that no one also shall 
claim or pretend any right to any of my goods (otherwise 
than what is above mentioned) whilst either of these my 
Executors ROBERT OR MARGRETT are living or their issue. 
And to this my will and testament I subscribe my name 
and affix my seal the 27th day of October in the year 
of our Lord 1692. 
[signed] CHRISTIAN PARR.
